Code formatting with syntax highlighting

Code Formatting with Syntax Highlighting

You can easily showcase code snippets inside your articles using syntax highlighting. If you're using the Markdown Editor, just use triple backticks (```) to wrap your code blocks and optionally specify the language.

If youโ€™re using the WYSIWYG Editor, make sure to wrap code inside <pre><code> tags manually.


How to Use

To format code:

go

CopyEdit

```language // your code here ```

  • Replace language with one supported by Highlight.js.

  • If no language is specified, the system will try to detect it automatically.

  • To disable highlighting, use nohighlight as the language.


Examples

JavaScript

javascript

CopyEdit

var el = document.getElementById('content');

PHP

php

CopyEdit

$var = array_keys(['key' => 'value']);

Ruby

ruby

CopyEdit

puts 'Hello World'

Bash

bash

CopyEdit

export variable="value";
